In the last two decades, there has been a resurgence of interest in the value of the Old Testament for modern ethical questions. This volume brings together for the first time many of John Rogerson's contributions-both published and unpublished-to Old Testament social ethics. Rogerson's essays cover a wide range of modern social issues including: using the Bible in the debate about abortion; the Old Testament and nuclear disarmament; and the use of the Old Testament with reference to work and unemployment. The introduction by the editor provides a summary and survey of Rogerson's work.
